Explanation of Safety Messages
Precautionary statements (“DANGER,” “WARNING,”
and “CAUTION”), followed by specific instructions,
are found in this manual and on machine decals. These
precautions are intended for the personal safety of the
operator, user, servicer, and those maintaining the
machine.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used
to inform the reader of specific procedures where
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure
is not followed.
NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate
installation, operation, maintenance or servicing
information that is important but not hazard
related.
Important Safety Instructions
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.
2. Install the washer according the
INSTALLATION instructions. Refer to the
GROUNDING instructions in the
INSTALLATION manual for the proper
grounding of the washer. All connections for
water, drain, electrical power and grounding must
comply with local codes and be made by licensed
personnel when required. It is recommended that
the machine be installed by qualified technicians.
3. Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
4. To prevent fire and explosion, keep the area
around machine free from flammable and
combustible products. Do not add the following
substances or textiles containing traces of the
following substances to the wash water: gasoline,
kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, vegetable oils,
machine oils, dry-cleaning solvents, flammable
chemicals, thinners, or other flammable or
explosive substances. These substances give off
vapors that could ignite, explode or cause the
fabric to catch fire by itself.
5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not
been used for such a period, before using a
washing machine or combination washer-dryer,
turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas
is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
6. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO
NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to
connect the washer to the electrical power
source.

WARNING
Machine Foundation Requirements
A 6 inch (153 mm) (for 35 and 60 2-speed, L-speed
and M-speed models) or a 12 inch (305 mm) (for all
other models) thickness of 3500 psi reinforced
concrete foundation is absolutely necessary because of
the high extract speed and the G-forces exerted.
When designing floors or foundations, refer to Tab le 2
for Floor Load Data for all model sizes. If the
foundation requirements have been met, proceed to
Mounting Bolt Installation Requirements section.
NOTE: Do not mount on wooden floors, above
ground level, or over basements. Installation must
be “slab on grade” or equal.
Thoroughness of detail must be stressed with all
foundation work to ensure a stable unit installation,
eliminating possibilities of excessive vibration during
extract.
For new foundations a bolt-locator fixture or rebar
frame is available and a preferred option. This rigid
welded assembly made of reinforcing rod and
mounting bolts is designed to be embedded in
concrete. Refer to Figure 7.
The washer-extractor must be anchored to a smooth
level surface so that the entire base of the machine is
supported and rests on the mounting surface. (Do not
support the washer-extractor on only four points.)
Make sure to grout machine. Refer to Figure 6 and
Figure 7.
A concrete foundation and pad may be constructed to
elevate the machines. Care must be exercised in the
design of the foundation pad due to the force exerted
by the machine during extract. This concrete base
(recommended not to exceed 8 inches [20.32 cm])
(above existing floor) must be poured, reinforced with
rebar and tied to the existing 6 inch (153 mm) (for 35
and 60 2-speed, L-speed and M-speed models) or 12
inch (305 mm) (for all other models) minimum floor.
Refer to Figure 5 and Table 2.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT install a pad on top of the
existing floor. The foundation and pad must be
constructed and tied together as one piece.
If the existing floor is not reinforced concrete at least 6
inch (153 mm) (for 35 and 60 2-speed, L-speed and
M-speed models) or 12 inch (305 mm) (for all other
models) thick over a solid foundation, the following
steps must be performed (refer to Figure 5):
1. Cut a hole larger on all sides than the machine
base through the existing floor. The foundation
should extend a minimum of 9 inches (229 mm)
for 35 models or 12 inches (305 mm) for 60 - 150
models out from the machine on all sides.
2. Excavate to a depth of 18 inches (457 mm) from
the top of the existing floor.
6. Wet the hole around the cement foundation well
and brush the exposed foundation with cement
grout.
7. Completely fill with a minimum of 6 inch (153
mm) (for 35 and 60 2-speed, L-speed and
M-speed models) or 12 inch (305 mm) (for all
other models) of 3500 psi concrete up to the
existing foundation level plus any added level for
the desired elevated pad. The concrete must be
poured so that the entire foundation and pad
cures as one piece.
8. For new foundations only a bolt-locator fixture
or a rebar frame is available and a preferred
option. Embed the mounting bolts or rebar frame
as the concrete is poured. Ensure that the bolt
threads extend 2 inches (51 mm) for 35 - 125
models and 3 inches (76 mm) for 150 models
above floor level.
9. Allow concrete to dry.
10. Proceed to Machine Mounting and Grouting
section.
NOTE: If the washer-extractor installation will
include the Premium Wet Clean Module, the
elevated base must be designed to accommodate the
additional depth of 24 inches (60.96 cm).
For technical assistance, contact your local distributor
or call Alliance Laundry Systems at (920) 748-3121.
3. Produce a PYRAMID-SHAPED hole by
excavating the bottom of the hole to a width 6
inches wider on each side than the width of the
top of the hole.
4. If installing a foundation and pad, prepare a form
for the above-ground portion of the foundation.
Verify that the top of the foundation is level. The
height of the foundation pad must not exceed 8
inches (203 mm) above the existing floor.
5. Refill with compacted fill dirt, making sure to
allow for correct concrete thickness.
NOTE: If installing expansion bolts into an
elevated concrete foundation pad, the concrete
foundation pad should extend a minimum of 9
inches (229 mm) for 35 machines or 12 inches (305
mm) for 60 - 150 machines out from the machine
base on all sides. Refer to Figure 5.
A bolt kit consisting of eight bolts is available as an
option. 35 machines use 5/8-11 x 8 inch bolts.
60 – 125 machines use 3/4-10 x 8 inch bolts. 150
machines use 3/4-10 x 10 inch grade 5 bolts. The bolts
should be embedded in a 3500 psi (241 bar) minimum
reinforced concrete floor that is a minimum of 6 inches
(153 mm) (for 35 and 60 2-speed, L-speed, and
M-speed models) or a 12 inch (305 mm) (for all other
models) thick. Use the mounting bolt layouts in
Mounting Bolt Hole Locations section.
On 35 – 125 machines, the threaded end of the bolts
should extend 2 inches (5.08 cm) above the mounting
surface. On 150 machines, the threaded end of the
bolts should extend 3 inches above the mounting
surface.
Refer to Figure 6 for a typical installation of
individual mounting bolts.
For new foundations a bolt-locator fixture or rebar
frame is available and a preferred option. This rigid
welded assembly made of reinforcing rod and
mounting bolts is designed to be embedded in
concrete. Refer to Figure 7.

all voids are filled.
6. Remove the spacers carefully, allowing the
machine to settle into the wet grout.
7. Before grout sets completely, make a drain
opening in the rear of the washer-extractor
grouting with a stiff piece of wire; this opening
should be approximately 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) wide
to allow any surface water build-up under the
base of the machine to drain away. Do not omit
this step.
8. Position the mounting bolt lockwashers and
locknuts on the anchor bolts and finger-tighten
locknuts to machine base.
9. After the grout is completely dry, tighten the
locknuts by even increments – one after the other –

On variable-speed models, the AC inverter drive
requires a clean power supply free from voltage spikes
and surges. A voltage monitor should be used to check
incoming power. The customer’s local power company
may provide such a monitor.
The following conditions require corrective action,
contact the local utility to adjust the voltage. If the
local utility cannot adjust the input voltage, install a
buckboost transformer to lower the input voltage.
Input voltage is above 240V or 480V, phase to ground
voltage exceeds 125% of normal line to line voltage,
or 240V open delta configuration (stinger leg).
Contact the distributor or the manufacturer for
assistance.
On variable-speed models, the AC drive provides
thermal overload protection for the drive motor.
However, a separate three-phase circuit breaker must
be installed for complete electrical overload
protection. This prevents damage to the motor by
disconnecting all legs if one should be lost
accidentally. Check the serial plate on the back of the
washer-extractor for recommended circuit breaker
requirements size.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use fuses in place of a
circuit breaker.

A bracket, which is located on the left side of the
control module, has been provided for mounting the
external supply controls. This bracket is present only
on models made through 6/30/08. Refer to Figures 3
and 4.
For proper communication between the washerextractor and an external chemical supply system, it is
important for the signal power to be connected
properly. The included wiring diagram shows several
different options for safe and correct wiring of this
interface.
The preferred method for connecting the wiring from
the external chemical supply system to the washerextractor is to use the 300mA power of the washerextractor’s 24VAC control transformer, which is
intended strictly for this purpose. Other voltage and
current options are available, but require some wiring
changes and must be provided with an external power
source. Under no circumstances should the highvoltage machine supply connections or source be used
for the communication wiring.
Communication wiring connections, which include a
single row of identified terminal blocks, can be found
under a service panel at the upper back of the machine.
Chemical Injection Using Internal 24VAC
Control Transformer
NOTE: Using the Internal 24VAC 300 Milliamp
Control Transformer is recommended by Alliance
Laundry Systems.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT remove the red jumper
wire from the terminal strip.
There are 3 terminals necessary for this
connection option.
•Terminal “24VAC COM” is used to connect one
side of the internal control transformer to the
external dispenser input signals common.
•The second terminal is used to connect the other
side of the control transformer to the washerextractor output signals common through a red
jumper wire between “24VAC” and “RELAY
COM”. Refer to Figure 26.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the transformer
terminals if an external power supply is used.
Do not attempt to increase fuse rating or
alter wiring of external chemical supply
terminal strip in such as way that may
conflict with the suggested methods
provided on the Optional External Supply
Wiring Diagram.
